Cross surrenders
Hudson resident and former alderman Quintin E. Cross surrendered early Mon., Apr. 30, to Hudson police. Cross, 29, was accompanied by his attorney, Susan Tipograph. Cross was the subject of a statewide dragnet in March when he disappeared following questioning by police in connection with a break-in at Hudson City Hall. Two men allegedly entered the building, located at 520 Warren St., through a back entrance sometime between 6 p.m., Fri., Mar. 16 and 6 a.m., Mon., Mar. 19. and stole less than $100 from a petty cash drawer in the Department of Public Works office. Cross was questioned and released, but a felony arrest warrant was subsequently issued March 20. The other man alleged to be involved, Jamont McClendon, 28, was apprehended in a residence on State St. by city police Tues., Apr. 2, following receipt of a tip. McClendon is currently held in Columbia County Jail. As of his surrender, Cross was expected to be processed at HPD and then arraigned in county court sometime later. Editor’s note: Cross was an active WGXC 90.7-FM volunteer as of the date of his disappearance.
